Alex's Bistro

Incredible evening!. Just had an amazing experience at Alex. The service was excellent and the food was great. The Pork Dijonnaise with Braised red cabbage was sumptuous and the banana's foster crepes... well I almost licked the plate. However, the service was the best part. After spilling a drink on the plate (there were only a few bites left), the Chef (Alex) INSISTED on providing a replacement even after we said it was not necessary. In addition, a young man proposed in the restaurant (the girl accepted amidst applause) and Alex provided a small bottle of champagne to the happy couple to celebrate. A lovely evening and fantastic dinner. We WILL go back. BTW, the prices are excellent for the quality of food.…

Never Disappoints. My wife and I have dined at Alex's for over 15 years....as much of their clientele are regulars who frequent this delectable little bistro. It is the most authentic bistro fare in the city and imitations are plentiful. When we are in the mood for a high quality meal prepared with classic tried and true style, we head to our favorite place. It never let's us down.

It was surprising to read that a first time customer had become ill as most customers who eat there all the time keep coming back. A stomach virus undoubtedly.

Although, switching from a burgers and fries diet to real food could be cause for digestive uproars.

Some of the items we love are the super fresh Atlantic Salmon with either béarnaise sauce or lobster-dill sauce, Filet Mignon Gorgonzola, the veal when on special is outstanding; for lunch, salads are incredible, soups are the best in town; quiche or chicken tea sandwiches are great for a light lunch.

Creme Brulee is the real thing and my neice's favorite is the chocolate mousse. Bananas Foster Crepe......a winner.

Friendly, accommodating staff will make your visit memorable.…

Won't be going back. My wife and I were recently there for the first time for dinner. I had french onion soup and crepes and my wife had crepes. About an hour after eating neither of us felt too good. She ended up in our downstairs bathroom with diarrhea while I was in the upstairs bathroom vomiting and with diarrhea. We won't be going back.…

Fantastic Bistro!!. I travel a lot for business and am always happy to return to Alex's bistro as one of my favorite all-time restaurants. It compares to the best bistros in NYC, Paris, San Francisco ot Chicago. Yet, it is unpretentious, the staff is helpful and friendly....and, it does not have the BS that corporate chains fuel with their sond & dance server pitch. This is just a great low-key place with great food and drinks for a relaxing meal that will make you want to go back again. Alex is from France with roots in Italy, so you get the best of all worlds. When we have friends or business associates in town....this is the one place we take them....always a great dining experience!!!!…
